Clinton is about 25 minutes east of Missoula on I-90, and we schedule it on east-side route days with Bonner and the Highway 200 homes so installs out this way are grouped.
Clinton is twenty-five minutes east of Missoula on I-90, strung along the Clark Fork between Turah and the Rock Creek exit, and most of the homes are on acreage rather than in a town grid. Montana Lights is owned and operated by Constructive Brothers, a licensed and insured Missoula construction company, and we bring the full holiday lighting service out here. That means commercial-grade LED strands cut to your roofline, mini lights for the trees near the house, a free design visit and quote before anything starts, maintenance for the whole season, and a January takedown with the strands going back to our storage. You are not asked to buy anything or climb anything.
Clinton properties are shaped by the river and the interstate. Many homes sit on the bench between the frontage road and the Clark Fork, with big cottonwoods along the water and ponderosas up the hillside behind, and the house is often visible from I-90 for a mile or more. Up Rock Creek Road the homes turn into cabins and fishing places on narrow lots under heavy timber, with steep metal roofs and driveways that get snow before anywhere in Missoula does. Both kinds of property get cold, and the canyon pulls a steady wind through in December. We build every install around those two facts, with clipped sockets and tight lines, and strands rated for sub-zero nights.
Clinton is grouped with Bonner and the Highway 200 homes or run as its own east-side route day when we have several installs out this way, which is how we keep drive time from landing on your quote. Most Clinton homes come in between $900 and $2,500 for a first season and less in later seasons, since the strands are cut once and stored with us.

Cabins up Rock Creek Road are tucked into timber on narrow lots, and the road itself can be slick well before Thanksgiving. We schedule Rock Creek installs early in November when we can still get a truck and trailer in, and we keep the design simple: a roofline in warm white and one wrapped tree by the door.
A lit house on the Clinton bench is visible to every car on I-90 between Turah and the Rock Creek exit, which is more eyes than any street in Missoula gets. For those homes we use bright, evenly spaced C9 bulbs on the roofline facing the highway and put the detail work on the side you see from the driveway.
The cottonwoods along the Clark Fork in Clinton are big, and the river fog that forms under them on cold nights leaves ice on everything by morning. We wrap trunks with commercial-grade mini lights that shrug off ice, and we keep the roofline strands away from the eave edges where ice dams build so the wire never gets pinched.
We supply the lights, design the display, hang it with roof-safe clips, keep it running all season and take it down in January. Most Missoula homes run $700 to $2,500 for a first season.
